Question OEM fuel pump done! Need a new pump

Well my OEM fuel pump just died 2 days ago, so i need an upgrade. heard of the Walbro pump, which one do i use? Doing head+cam swap so i will need one that can handle the need.

This is what i think of getting is it the right one and is it a direct bolt on? Do we have a sticky somewhere i searched but found nada...

A 255 will work fine as well.

The 400 works just fine in the stock bucket. As far as I'm concerned the 255 is obsolete. It's much nosier and has significantly less output. Size is almost identical between the two.

And I'd get the 450 over the 400. More output and gives the option to run E85 if you so choose.

I did the aeromotive 340, 11140, with wire harness from racetronix. Good for my 570rwhp. It's direct fit.
